    my brake caliper decals...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Just wanted to share these with you guys. Obviously it's no BBK, but I added these brake caliper logos the other day along with painting my calipers black. I'm very happy with the outcome. Rich at www.xenonmods.com designed the decals for me. He was very helpful, I highly recommend talking to him about any vinyl decals you need.

    Re: my brake caliper decals...

    did you take them off the vehicle to paint? or just wrapped everything up ... is it do-able in a one day ordeal?

    Left them on the car. Used a brush on brake caliper paint which dries in a day. So I painted the calipers one day and then put the decals on and sprayed a clearcoat on the second day.

    I'm sure if you brushed early in the morning you could do everything in one day. As for the spray clearcoat I wasn't too worried about getting clear on my rotor, the brake pad should easily get that off in one or two solid brakes.

    They look good , have you got around to doing the rear?
    haven't done the rears yet, but then again I just got home from a much needed vacation. Still undecided on if I'm just going to paint the rears or also add a smaller decal.

    I believe the caliper paint is duplicolor, just picked it up at my local pep boys. then used an engine enamal (500 degree rated) clear spray after putting the decals on. The decals them selves were from www.xenonmods.com and were $20.


    Did you contact him about the s4 decal? I only see the rings on his website. LMK. im very interested in getting the s4 decal as well.
    Rich at xenonmods designed these just for me bacause I couldn't find these logos anywhere. They should be up on the site soon, but go ahead and email him and I'm sure you can get them soon. [email protected] Mine arrived in the mail 2 days after ordering.

    How was your communication with them? I placed an order with them over two weeks ago, sent them two emails and haven't heard a word from them. I've now had no choice, but to open a claim with paypal. I'd think twice before ordering with them.

    Re: my brake caliper decals...

    Not trying to thread hijack. But this guy is an ahole. the guy that sells the decals. I ordered some over 2 months ago. I have requested him to refund my money over and over again. He has not. He told me he has sent them out on several occasions. Then disappears. I would never do business with this Dbag. His name is Rich and he is one of the worst sellers i have ever had the displeasure of working with. I have been patient but no more. sorry to rant but this guy really has pissed me off.

    Re: my brake caliper decals...

    I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with him. He had no problems making my decals. I noticed on his site it says that he and his wife operate that site outside of their normal jobs so maybe that could have been a part of it.

    Hopefully you get everything straightened out because I had a good experience with him. Good luck.

    Edit: I just emailed Rich telling him that you guys have had some problems, maybe that will help.

    Here is what Rich responded with:

    Aaron - yeah, the site has had some major issues in the past two weeks, e-mail server sporatic, and the site itself (as they may have witnessed the past few days) being up and down.

    If guys on there are unhappy, please have them e-mail me at [email protected] instead of the xenonmods.com address

    He also said to be sure and add your care Make and Model in the email title.

    Sorry but that guy is an asshole. I have been able to contact him. He slammed me on ebay and I have been waiting over 2 months. NO matter how polite i have been He says they are on there way. I wait and wait and recieve nothing other than some lip service.

    Re: my brake caliper decals...

    Sorry but had to post this. Now he sent me an email on the 5th saying he recieve my address and sent them out. Now He blamed me the first time for an incorrect address but it wasn't and now he is doing it again. this is the email i recieve. what a Dbag.

    If you would have given me an address that was correct you would have
    had them weeks ago.

    I got them returned by the Post Office for a bad address. What would you
    like me to do?

    I have dealt with him too, but it was far from a pleasant experience, the guy does not know how to run a business and he is definitely quick to lip off his customers and blame them for his fuckups.
